Messi 3 Champions League 6 Golden Balls are ridiculed, don't go black, the Ballon d'Or awards have never been equal to the Champions League
Cristiano Ronaldo 5 Champions League 5 Golden Ball, of which 4 Golden Globe awards are the Champions League champions of that year, while Messi only has 3 Golden Globe awards that year's Champions League champions, the remaining 3 are not.
This has also become a major direction for many black fans to hit Messi: you only have 3 Champions Leagues, but there are 6 golden balls, all of which are mixed gold balls, and the golden balls become water balls!
But is that the case? Is this true? When did the Golden Globes draw an equal sign with the Champions League?
We've been counting since '91 on what the Ballon d'Or has to do with the Champions League.
The Champions League format before '91 was very different, and there were even fewer teams, only 16 teams, and the impact did not reach the current level. The reformed Champions League is the highest level of football in the world.

Among them, Figo and Da Luo's Ballon d'Or, are not Champions League champions, they only joined Real Madrid in the second half of the year, and Real Madrid has already won the Champions League in June.
We can see that since 1991, of the 29 Ballon d'Or awards, there are only 9 Champions League winners of that season! In the 16 years from '91 to '06, not a single Ballon d'Or winner was a member of the Champions League.
From the beginning of Kaka in 2007 to Messi in 19 years, these 13 years are the time period when the Ballon d'Or and the Champions League coincide the most, and there are 9 years of Ballon d'Or winners, who are the Champions League champions of that season.
In addition to Messi Cristiano Ronaldo, of the 18 Ballon d'Or awards, only 2 are Champions League champions, Kaka in 2007 and Modric in 18.
The data makes it clear that the Ballon d'Or is not at all the same as the Champions League.
And why does Caramero, their golden balls coincide more with the Champions League? Or because of super personal performance.
In the year when these three won the Golden Globe, their personal performance was impeccable and staggering. In terms of their performance, even if they don't win the Champions League in the end, they are very likely to win the Ballon d'Or.
So those brainless remarks can be stopped, the Golden Globes, never the prize for champions. She is the highest individual award for a player.
